This course is designed to provide methods for teaching content appropriate to the teaching certificate to bilingual English language learners, using the native language and English. It provides generic background information for developing an interdisciplinary approach to instruction for children in early childhood, elementary, and middle school classes. Emphasis is given to the preparation of interdisciplinary, thematic units of instruction and the processes involved in designing disciplinary and interdisciplinary lessons and activities.

Throughout the course, children's developmental levels and abilities are related to the planning processes. Competence in the English and Spanish languages and research skills needed by teacher education majors is demonstrated in the preparation of a research project in Spanish.
